Routine

We are starting to gain a sense of what our new normal is.








Zack returned to work 2 weeks ago, and I started back last week. William started second grade last week as well. Daniel spends time with Zack's parents while we're both working.

And we've officially enrolled Daniel in pre-K. He'll start that just after Labor Day. And he'll have the same pre-K teacher that William had when he first arrived home. We had thought we'd wait until January to start preschool. But he is doing well with everything and the kicker was how well he does in his class at church. So we figured this will be good for him: for his social skills, language, etc.

Daniel LOVES being in the water. We went to my brother's house last weekend to hang out with his family. They have an inground pool (saltwater!!) and we were curious to see how Daniel would do. We put water wings on him, and for the first 20 or 30 minutes he was stuck to Zack. But we soon convinced him that he was safe, and he had a blast. He was jumping off the side, begging Zack to throw him, and just enjoying kicking around the pool.


This past weekend, Daniel was introduced to what has come to be known as 'the little house' - our place on the lake. That meant more fun in the water, and more fun with family!  He did great on our first weekend away from home, and we look forward to going back soon. By Sunday afternoon, he was exhausted from all the excitement.





When we took custody of Daniel, he was in desperate need of a haircut. The chicken pox kept us from being able to take him out to get it cut, so Zack did it - and did a very good job, too!  While we were at the lake, we decided to take the boys for haircuts. Daniel's first 'real' haircut - he was such a good boy, but honestly, Zack does a much better job. It looks okay from the front, but the back is kind of a mess.
